We studied the direct effects of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in single cell colony assays of CD34+HLA-DR++ bone marrow progenitor cells stimulated by either granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), interleukin(IL)-3, granulocyte/macrophage-colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), combinations of these CSF or medium conditioned by the 5637 human bladder carcinoma cell line. In this culture system IFN-gamma stimulated monocytic colonies (CFU-M) no matter which CSF or CSF combination was used to support them and inhibited granulocytic colonies (CFU-G) if they were generated in the presence of G-CSF. IL-4 antagonized the myelopoietic effects of IFN-gamma: the IFN-gamma-induced suppression of G-CSF-supported CFU-G, as well as the stimulation of CFU-M, were reversed by IL-4. In all cultures, IFN-gamma had a limited, but statistically non-significant, inhibitory effect on CFU-GM, which was not affected by the presence of IL-4. These data show that IFN-gamma and IL-4 reciprocally regulate the generation of myeloid cells involved in humoral (neutrophils) and cellular (macrophages) immune responses through a direct effect on monopotential myeloid progenitor cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007371 Interferon-gamma The major interferon produced by mitogenically or antigenically stimulated LYMPHOCYTES. It is structurally different from TYPE I INTERFERON and its major activity is immunoregulation. It has been implicated in the expression of CLASS II HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in cells that do not normally produce them, leading to AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D015847 Interleukin-4 A soluble factor produced by activated T-LYMPHOCYTES that induces the expression of MHC CLASS II GENES and FC RECEPTORS on B-LYMPHOCYTES and causes their proliferation and differentiation.
